Fórsa will host an online briefing on its recently-launched report on ‘The Irish state post-pandemic’ between 12.30pm and 13.30pm on Thursday, 7th April. You can register for the lunchtime event here.

The report was commissioned by Fórsa trade union and produced by TASC, Ireland’s think tank for action on social change.

This analysis is on the political and economic space for enhancing the role of a visionary State focused on improving public services and addressing Ireland’s societal needs through social mobility, the reduction of inequality, and the deep integration of climate action into economic development.

The report also examines the political and economic constraints to expanding the Irish state and uses case studies to explore how public policy can fulfil human and social needs. It makes recommendations about how the state can address challenges in care, renewable energy, and higher education.

The findings will be presented by the President of the Irish Congress of Trade Unions, Kevin Callinan.

Members, activists and trade union officials are encouraged to attend. You can register for the event here.

A copy of the report is available here.
